95 INF-41: Food Stamps: Clarification of Treatment of Earned
Income Tax Credit (EITC) as a Resource and Introduction of EITC Desk Chart
This is to provide clarification on when to apply the food stamp
resource exclusion for the earned income tax credit (EITC). The Mickey
Leland Hunger Relief Act provides that any household member's EITC is
excluded as a resource for a period of 12 months from the date of receipt if
participating in the food stamp program at the time of receipt. This INF
introduces a quick reference EITC Desk Chart to assist eligibility staff and
shares a couple of questions/answers received from the USDA on EITC.
